Description of the problem	I have a 2005 volkswagen new beetle. I bought it brand new from the dealership. Between 2005- 2009 i had many repair problems. The first problem was my window regulator which cost me $400 for the part and labor. Then i had all kinds of electrical problems and sensor problems that the dealership claimed they have fixed but it will do the same thing like a week or so later. Now i am having problems with my transmission, which costs thousands of dollars to fix. So far i have been to 5 places trying to get my car fixed. My car is the only transportation that i have to and from school and work. It can go out on me any day. It jerks will hard and often causes my tires to spin from the force of the jerk. This is so dangerous. I have got my window regulator replaced about 3 weeks later the motor in the window went out which cost another $400 to fits.
